Causes

Life-threatening Causes

  • Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. There are no life-threatening causes of esophageal stricture, however complications resulting from untreated esophageal stricture is common.

Common Causes

Esophageal stricture may be caused by:

  • Gastroesophageal reflux disease[1]
  • Eosinophilic esophagitis[2]
  • Previous surgery on the esophagus, postsurgical resection for esophageal or laryngeal cancer
  • Surgical anastomosis
  • Radiation therapy for thoracic or head and neck tumors[3]
  • Esophageal sclerotherapy
  • Caustic ingestions[4]
  • Treatment for esophageal varices (enlarged veins in the esophagus)
  • Esophageal or laryngeal cancer
  • Drug-induced stricture:
    • Aspirin and anti-inflammatory agents[5]
    • Tetracycline
    • Doxycycline
    • Clindamycin
    • Bisphosphonates
    • Potassium chloride
    • Quinidine preparations
    • Iron compounds
    • Emepronium
    • Aalprenolol
    • Pinaverium 
  • External compression of the esophagus due to mediastinal fibrosis induced by tuberculosis or idiopathic fibrosing mediastinitis
  • increased esophageal acid exposure (eg, systemic sclerosis, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, nasogastric tube placement, and after Heller myotomy for achalasia)
  • Esophageal diverticula or hiatal hernia
  • Tracheoesophageal fistula
  • Infectious esophagitis
    • Candida 
    • Herpes simplex virus (HSV)
    • Cytomegalovirus (CMV)
    • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)

Less Common Causes

Less common causes of esophageal stricture include:

Genetic Causes

  • [Disease name] is caused by a mutation in the [gene name] gene.
